Leadership Alignment

Research has clearly demonstrated that organisations led by highly effective teams outperform their peers commercially — profitability, sales growth, product quality and employee engagement have all been demonstrated to be materially higher in organisations led by highly effective teams.

We work with leaders and their teams to help them define how they are going to work together, and how they are going to lead the organisation. Our approach leans on some core theoretical frameworks, including Patrick Lencioni’s “5 Dysfunctions of a Team” and the ‘6 Team Conditions’ which evolved from research out of Harvard University, but is tailored to each client’s situation and needs.

We will support you in challenging yourselves. Challenge the way you think. Challenge the way you lead. Challenge the way you work together. It may be uncomfortable at times, but it will deliver both personal and business benefits.

The Leadership Teams of our clients are reaping the benefits of investing in themselves:

  • “Red Emu helped our executive team redefine not only what is important in our business and what is "white noise", but also how we work together to be the most effective team we can be. At a time when we were under significant market pressure, Red Emu brought clarity to our team and helped us regain our sense of purpose and focus on our strategy.

    Each member of the Red Emu team bring different and unique skills, and the combination was very powerful. They were able to quickly identify how to deploy their skills to the best effect, with a constant focus on meeting our needs as their client. The Red Emu team know how to cut through to the big issues, while maintaining a professional and empathetic approach.”

  • “The integrated Red Emu Advisory approach of using executive testing, combined with leadership theory and extensive executive experience to bring a greater level of understanding and insight to the team as individuals and as an aligned executive team was extremely successful.

    Behavioural change is not easy in any organisation, however having the right framework to base your discussions, feedback and alignment around has improved our effectiveness and performance as an executive team. I believe the capability, passion and experience the Red Emu team display and share is an integral part of ensuring those attending the program feel at ease with participating in conversation and opening up as executives.”

  • “The team had some tough conversations that had been avoided for too long! It was liberating for everyone to get what they were thinking out and the issues holding us back on the table. Following those conversation we set about making change with a new determination and in six months lifted performance, engagement and created a real sense of momentum to get thing done and "getting the big rocks" out of the way.

    Working with Red Emu was a pleasure I would recommend them to any organisation that aspires to exceptional performance and is prepared to put in the work.”

  • “My experience with Red Emu is one that is positive for the entire organisation, challenging no doubt, but in a very good way. We still have a way to go, we have challenges coming, but Red Emu is going to help us get through it.”
